Obsolete links[edit]

On top of the page the note

For the Swiss Cheese model in physical cosmology, see large-scale structure of the cosmos, galaxy filament, and supercluster.

shows 3 links where the cosmic swiss-cheese model is supposed to be treated. But since none of the 3 links actually mentions the model (it seems that the sections about it have been deleted because of missing relevance) the note should be deleted. --Yukterez (talk) 21:29, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

SVG diagram created[edit]

I've created an SVG version of the cheese model. It's not exactly like for like with the current model, so before I swap it in, sharing it here for your comments. Regards, Ben Aveling 12:05, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Metaphors referring to food and drink[edit]

Someone added and someone else removed Category:Metaphors referring to food and drink. Me, I'm inclined to think that this page does indeed fall into that category. It is, after all, a cheese metaphor. Ben Aveling 15:41, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
